Cancer: Your Love Quality

Giving to others what you want in return.

Remember the super sensitivity that Superman had? It was a good thing that he didn't identify all those influences as coming from himself. He knew he was separate from what he picked up through his senses, but learned to control his senses by turning them off, tuning in only when he needed them.

Our task as a Cancer is to learn to not identify with the thoughts and emotions we pick up. The way to do this is to change your identification from personality to the Self, to allow the higher self to rule over the hypnotic influence that causes our sensitivity. When personality is purified from this identification with this level of consciousness, and transfers the sense-of-self to a higher understanding of Self, will you be able to rule over your super sensitivity.

In order to do this, first we must accept that this level of personality, or the sense of separateness that is necessary to create personality is a phase in our spiritual development. Then from that level of understanding we can begin to distinguish the differences between the influences that bombard personality, and the influences that lead to our greater perfection — to distinguish spirit from body.

The focus that maintains this perception is by remembering we are a vehicle for the expression of Universal Will. We purify our identification,  to separate our self from the body by examining our actions from this perspective. In this way, we build a stronger receptivity to the Universal forces, protected from the collective forces that can cause deep insecurity and over emotionalism. When the memory (Moon) has been cleared of this over identification a feeling of gratitude for the deep emotions of living develops (Jupiter exalted in Cancer) and we begin to give to others what we so desperately need ourselves — Love and Nurturing.
